Monster soundIt was an all enveloping mental assault of a pleasant nature. Being in a cosy venue helped with the feeling of inclusion in their world.

A mighty slab of awesomenessI forgot just how titanic MM could be and what a great frontman Dave is, hope they don't leave it so long to return, magnificent gig. Spine of God was simply epic.

Fantastic show and great venueI got a spot at the front so that greatly enhanced my experience as it was quite close to the stage itself.
The only problem i noticed was that Wyndorf's voice was quieter than the rest of the instruments. Other than that minor drawback it was a brilliant show with great songs, light and atmosphere. Monster Magnet as excellent as always!

BANGING!!!!Has been 18 years since I saw Monster Magnet burn the Kerrang stage at Big Day Out. It was so good to see them rocking out all this time later. SIC gig!! Great set list, took a while for the mosh pit to get going but once it did it was as glorious as I could imagine. Loved it!!!

Space Lord Motherf*cker!!Monster Magnet are my all-time favourite band, and I make the pilgrimage down to London from Manchester whenever they play (invariably in Camden - though it would be great to see them up North again sometime!) What can I say - they never fail to blow me away, and this show was no exception! For a band that has been off the 'mainstream' radar since the early noughties, they still have a very dedicated following, who seem to show up for every UK gig year after year and give it their all (myself included!)
MM belt out hit after hit from their epic back catalogue (this time with the focus on the albums recorded whilst on the A&M Records label) and the crowd goes wild. Dave Wyndorf is the Rock & Roll ringleader, who hasn't lost an ounce of his stage presence over the years (awhh yeahhh!) When Dopes to Infinity comes on ('we are all here my friend, alive and spaced but all so beautiful') it feels like the whole crowd is one big loved-up, doped-up space rock family. When the Space Lord goes down, the whole venue is jumping. The atmosphere is electric and for me, sheer joy - I leave dripping with sweat and grinning from ear to ear.
Orange Goblin were an awesome choice of support act - another of my favourites, and a headlining band in their own right. Incredible to see two of the Stoner Rock monoliths on the same bill! They too treated us to a king-sized helping of tunes, and did a fantastic job of getting the crowd pumped up for the main event.
To sum up - love live Monster Magnet!! If you ever get the chance to see them, DO IT - I promise you will not regret it. Can you dig it...? I knew that you could ;)
